[comp.sys.mac.system] 6.07/HC2.0/INIT conflict

After installing system 6.07 and HyperCard 2.0 on my IIci, I found
that the new HC wouldn't run (it would open, but mouse clicks would
get passed to the Finder, and all HC was doing was messing up the
screen). A bit of sifting and numerous restarts isolated the problem
to the NeXT-color-WDEF init (version 1.2 of "Eric's WDEF with NeVR
INIT", or something like that). A previous version of the same init
(version 1.0) gives the same result. Too bad - I much prefer the
NeXT-style window decorations, but at least it's aesthetics rather
than functionality that I have to give up.

Anybody know another init that does (NeXT) windows, and that coexists
with HC 2.0?

I don't know if it works with HC2, but WindChooser's 'Erik's WDEF' is similar,
in fact, the basis for the color one. After using the color one I went back
to this one, which I prefer. It also has three other WDEF's, one of which is
NeXT-ish also. Available on sumex.

The "Erik's WDEF" from WindChooser has the same problem with
6.0.7/HC2.0 as its successor, the NeXT-color-WDEF.
